As per the Boston Herald, "The blues flows so naturally for
Roberto Morbioli, and his guitar
playing and vocals are so polished, he sounds as if he grew up closer to Chicago than
Verona, Italy.
In 1991, Morbioli founded MORBLUS, accumulating critical acclaim and awards during his
impressive 33 year journey.
His collaborations span influential artists including: Guitar Shorty, Jesse Yawn, Robben
Ford, Roomful of Blues, Big Daddy Wilson, Mike Zito, Ronnie Earl, J. Geils, Sir. Waldo
Weathers (James Brown), Martha High, and many more.

world, showcasing versatility in both electric and acoustic performances. Venturing into the
USA, he's left an indelible mark at iconic venues such as B.B. King’s Blues club in
Memphis and Antone’s in Austin, Texas. Regular tours in the United States since 2004
affirm Roberto Morbioli's enduring significance in the international Blues scene.
